VOLUME 38, NUMBER 4 1 INDEX TO VOLUMES 1 TIfROUGH 38 This inclusive index of Massachusetts Archaeological Society Bulletins volumes 1-38(3) appears in three distinct formats. An Authors Index lists all authors alpha­ betically by last name, followed by the titles of their articles in chronological order, with volume, issue number, and initial page reference. The Title Index lists all titles alphabetically except for the initial articles "the, a and an". The title is followed by the author's name and a volume, number and page reference. The Subject Index format is rather less obvious; it is extensive but not comprehensive. The subjects alphabetized were generally drawn from the titles or major topics of the articles, comments, letters and editorials referenced. Thus, some of the subjects in the list are touched upon, if only lightly, in articles not referenced to them. The Subject Index should help a researcher make a start into the MAS literature on a topic, but it will not exhaust it. For example: the references listed under "Early Archaic sites" include only those articles which deal entirely or mainly with sites of that period. Many site reports which refer only briefly to Early Archaic artifacts being found will not be listed under that heading in the Subject Index. The Index team hopes that" users will appreciate the quandary they faced. and accept charitably the simplif,ying decisions made. The reference format [OO( 0) :oJ was selected by the Editor after consideration of several alternatives. It closely follows the format used by the American Anthropo­ logist for its indices, and may thus be unfamiliar to MAS members. It offered sub­ stantial savings in space and set-up costs, while being unambiguous in form and thus easily checked for accuracy. Dates of publication have been omitted, at substantial cost savings,because they are implied by, and can be reconstructed from, the volume and issue number, and will be readily accessible to anyone looking up an item in back journals. Following a title or subject heading, the volume number is preceded by a comma and followed by parentheses; in series, it is preceded by a semi-colon [00(0) :0]. The issue number is within parentheses and followed by a colon [OO(Q) :OJ. The initial page of an article, etc., follows the colon [OO(O):~ . The concluding page is not listed. This index represents the dedicated work of a number of individuals, beginning with its inception at Providence College in 1973. Under the direction of Dr. Carol Barnes, Charles Paxton, aided by his wife Loryn, compiled an Author Index on cards for all volumes through April, 1974. This list was cross-referenced by code to eighteen topical categories, from any of which reference could be made back to the author list. This substantial achievement was turned over to the present Editor in the fall of 1976, as a large set of index cards with a brief introduction and guide. With the help of Steven Fuller, a graduate student at the University of Massachu­ setts at Amherst, the Editor reviewed the Paxton index with the intention of bringing it up to date and preparing typescript for publication. The review revealed a problem in the coded reference categories. Two categories--"Theory and Comparative Studies" and "Miscellaneous"-- were very large in relation to other categories, and subsumed in their undifferentiated masses much of the most interesting material which had appear­ ed in the journal. Consequently, Mr. Fuller agreed to undertake a subject index in a format intended to encourage thoughtful and thorough research use of the Bulletin. The result of these combined labors is offered here. The Editor acknowledges with grateful awe the work of the Paxtons and Mr. Fuller, while assuming full responsibili­ ty for the final format of the index and for any errors, of omission or commission, which mar its form or usefulness. In addition to the monumental work of the compilers, the task was aided and ultimately brought to completion by the help of the following people: Michael McCracken of Attleboro, Janice Weeks and Patricia Crosby of Greenfield.

  • Armstrong Dam Removal Feasibility Study Final Report
    Armstrong Dam Removal FEASIBILITY STUDY Monatiquot River - Braintree, Massachusetts Prepared for: In partnership with: Prepared by: FINAL REPORT DECEMBER 2016 This page intentionally left blank. Executive Summary Armstrong Dam Removal FEASIBILITY STUDY – DRAFT REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Project Purpose The purpose of this project is to evaluate the feasibility of restoring access for diadromous1 fish to historically native habitats in the Upper Fore River Basin including its tributaries, the Monatiquot, Farm and Cochato Rivers by removing the Armstrong Dam, also known as Hollingsworth Dam, in Braintree, MA. The ultimate goal is restoring river herring access to the 180-acre Great Pond Reservoir in the Farm River basin headwaters. Great Pond serves as a water supply source for the towns of Braintree, Holbrook and Randolph (Tri-Town Water Board). A recent river herring and spawning nursery habitat assessment (Chase et al. 2015) was conducted that demonstrated Great Pond provides suitable river herring spawning habitat. Imagery Credit: Duane Raver/USFWS Species targeted for restoration include both species of river herring (blueback herring and alewife), American eel, and sea lamprey, all of which are diadromous fish that depend upon passage between marine and freshwater habitats to complete their life cycle. Reasons for pursuing fish passage restoration in the Upper Fore River Basin include the importance and historical presence of the target species, the connectivity of and significant potential habitat within the watershed, and active public input and support. F.X. Messina Enterprises, the Armstrong Dam owner, is interested in removing the dam to The impact of diadromous fish species extends eliminate maintenance costs and liability and far beyond the scope of a single restoration potentially developing the site.
